I haven’t felt like putting up a Christmas tree this year. It may be December, but I sure haven’t been feeling the Christmas spirit. I couldn’t help but wonder – where was my holiday cheer? This would be the first year I didn’t celebrate Christmas with a tree. Even in my busiest and most emotionally trying […]

While I believe in aging well, I also believe that how you choose to age is part of your own personal journey. I don’t pass […]

There’s just something glamorous about long, lush eyelashes. When I was younger, I didn’t have to work at all to get Snuffleupagus-esque lashes. They grew and fluttered, effortlessly.
